2 1/2 c. whole wheat flour
1/2 c. powdered Cheddar cheese
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. garlic powder
6 tbsp. butter or shortening
1/2 c. ice water
1 egg, beaten
1 tsp. brown sugar

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Combine flour, powdered cheese, salt, garlic powder and sugar. Cut in shortening until mixture resembles corn meal.

Mix in egg and add enough water so mixture forms a ball. Pat out dough 1 inch thick with your fingers on a lightly oiled cookie sheet. Cut with cookie cutters. Bake 25-30 minutes. Remove from oven and cool on racks.
